Training log, week 6
Monday:
squat 185 lb 5x5
overhead press 95 lb 5x5
deadlift 200 lb 1x5
chin-ups 10, 7, 5, 8
prone bridges 45s, 45s, 45s
Wednesday:
squat 190 lb 5x5
bench 145lb 5x5
barbell row 135lb 5x5
dips 25, 15, 10
hanging leg raise 15, 15, 15
Saturday:
squat 200lb x5, x5, x3 (failed), 195lb x5
overhead press 100 lb x5, x5, x5, x4 (failed), x5
deadlift 205 lb 1x5
pull-ups 10, 6, 5
prone bridges 45s, 45s, 45s
Notes: I screwed up with Saturday's (would have been Friday's) squat number, it should have been 195 lb from the get-go. In any event, my form is suffering, and bad form leads to joint pain/injury, so it's time to deload that, maybe by as much as 40 lb so I can start coming up fast again and build some power. My overhead presses are going slower as well, and I caught myself giving a leg boost to a couple of reps, so I'm going to give 100 lb a couple more tries, then deload that if I'm still failing. I burned out a lot of my bend-over and squat muscles putting in a vinyl floor on Saturday after my workout, so I skipped today's scheduled workout, planning to just do Tuesday and Friday this week.
